* Over at the H.A.M.B., member mynameisnotpete just announced that Gene Winfield’s 1935 Ford shop truck recently resurfaced and is headed into the resto shop. Probably just as cool, he promises to keep posting updates as the restoration progresses. Probably not the greatest hot rod archaeological find of the century, but a significant one nonetheless.

*Â We’ve all seen that photo of the Tucker Sno-Cat on the Trans-Antarctic Expedition, straddling a chasm in a situation that seems rather hopeless. And we’ve all wondered whether that Sno-Cat’s still there, because it’s hard to imagine any way out of the situation. But Jesse, the just a car guy guy, recently found some home video from the expedition that shows just how the expedition members extricated the Sno-Cat from the chasm.

* Who wouldn’t want to hang out in an old warehouse, surrounded by cars and car buds? It’s like an adult version of the no-girls-allowed treehouses we built as kids, and a group of guys in San Francisco are making it a reality. Garage Magazine has the scoop on the Pirates Cove.

Loved the Sno-Cat footage and the groovy Kraftwerk soundrtack. Somehow I imagine a trail of empty 55 gallon drums strewn across the frozen continent like Hansel & Gretels bread crumbs. Did you note the dogsled at the end of the goods being towed? Can you imagine a sno-cat filled with bored huskies?
